Happy Monday faeries 🌿💚🌺 I'm looking forward to week two of school starting tomorrow! I've gotta say, it's kindof great to be back in full student mode. I may have a different story in a month once I'm swamped with work, but for now I'm completely enjoying life, school and exploring this great city 💚

Sent this sparkle monster off to a new home right before coming out here to PDX 💙💚

I must apologize for my long absence - I've been terribly busy in the human world for the past few months. I moved not once, but twice in the span of a single month. First I moved into a new home (a house! with a dishwasher! and laundry! and bountiful parking!) with my two best friends. Then a month later I packed up again and transplanted to Portland OR, where I'll be studying this Spring. I've found a wonderful school that offers certificate programs in interior design, something I've been interested in for several years. I've finally taken the plunge and I am SO happy to be starting a new chapter. Those of you who know me know that for the past 6 years, I've focused primarily on dance, working as a belly dance teacher and performer. Although I love belly dance, I've started to feel isolated, uninspired, and just tired. As a teacher, I was creating 3-5 group student choreographies every 3 months, and I found myself creatively worn out. I barely had energy to devote to my own dance practice, and my love for the art was suffering because of it. Pursuing a new career path is an effort to explore the world through new eyes, to meet new people, improve myself, and hopefully discover a path that will allow me to return to dance at perhaps a reduced level, but with more love and renewed curiosity. So, I now find myself in the beautiful city of Portland, in a magical house that I'm subletting (owned by an interior designer - go figure). The gorgeous weather and the new environment is invigorating, and, I must say, I think I'm falling in love with Portland a bit. Faeries definitely live here. So here are a few images of my new whimsical home for the season, including the delightful backyard (yes, that's a fig tree!). In the meantime, my Etsy shop is in vacation mode, as I am not producing new work and had to leave behind my workshop and won't be able to send out new orders. But if you see something you like and don't mind waiting until late July just shoot me a message and I can reserve it! For those of you who read this far, thank you for reading

Hello all you beautiful, magical beings out there! I am SO EXCITED to be back here sharing my dreams with you after a long ass break this fall. (Like, hands in the air, jumping up and down excited.) As some of you might know this is not my full-time job, so sometimes my official human work takes over and drains my ability to pour myself into creating and immersing myself in wonder, nature, and magic. And that happened BIG TIME this November. And then it just kept coming as December rolled around and brought the simultaneous joy and chaos that is the holiday season. So now, after a merciful break from work and teaching, I am thrilled to have had some time to look within and to return to creating. And I can't wait to share what I've been working on and to get back into the amazing IG community of makers that inspire me every single day. To kick off the new year I'm offering a special discount for all of you who managed to read this far lol :-p Use the code "WONDERLOVE2018" to get 18% off your entire order in my Etsy shop now through Jan 7th. So with that, I wish you all a blessed and joyful New Year, and can't wait to share in the magic in 2018! xoxoxo Joanie

Last chance to take advantage of the 25% off Halloween sale before it ends at midnight!

10/10/2017

Today is the last day of my pre-Halloween sale! The entire shop is 25% off until the end of the day. I'll be shipping out orders first thing in the morning and then getting on a plane bound for Ireland! I'm so so excited to spend a week in that magical country, and best of all I'll be traveling with my patents, which I haven't done in years ❤👨‍👩‍👧🌳🍃🍀

Today's my 27th birthday and I'm so excited that it actually feels like fall! The weather has been terribly hot lately, so I was scared I wouldn't get to celebrate with the wonderful, crisp autumn weather I've come to associate with my birthday. But luckily temperatures have dropped and there is that wonderful fall smell in the air, so I'm off to go enjoy it with a walk in the woods 😊🍂🍁🌿

Thank you Billie LeTourneau for the photo.
